Read the excerpt from chapter 7 of Night. One day when we had come to a stop, a worker took a piece of bread out of his bag and

threw it into a wagon. There was a stampede. Dozens of starving men fought desperately over a few crumbs. The worker watched the spectacle with great interest. Years later, I witnessed a similar spectacle in Aden. Our ship's passengers amused themselves by throwing coins to the "natives,” who dove to retrieve them. An elegant Parisian lady took great pleasure in this game. When I noticed two children desperately fighting in the water, one trying to strangle the other, I implored the lady: "Please, don’t throw any more coins!” "Why not?” said she. "I like to give charity . . .” Based on the details in this excerpt, what is the author’s primary purpose? to show how people everywhere need help to show how his opinion of humankind has changed to show that cruel behavior is not limited to only one situation to show that people may do things without thinking of the consequences

How does the author characterize Theseus in the story? Cite evidence from the text in your response
PolarNik [594]

The author portrays Theseus as a flawed human being. In early adventures, Theseus proved that he was a 'hero' but it wasn't until he slew the minotaur he became a legend, the living embodiment of braveness. However the author also made sure to mention that he deserted Princess Ariadne and even killed her father without much thought in order to allow the reader to understand that this so called hero although brave is far from perfect.

Hope this helps!

One critic called wiesel "part conscience...and part warning signal." how is that appropriate?
irinina [24]
The truth for this is that Wiesel is like a conscience,reminding people of the evil of persecuting others. Also he acts as a warning signal because he is cautioning others to be on guard against intol<span>erance.It is then more than fitting to call wiesel part conscience and part warning signal. </span>
